About
Harbor Shores boasts a Jack Nicklaus Signature layout that plays through a stunning landscape of forest and wetlands. The golf course tumbles across hills and ravines blanketed with hardwood trees, providing a round that is as scenic as it is challenging. Thanks to the massive white sand dunes that edge along the water, the course has a truly links feel. When combined with the trees and natural water hazards provided by the landscape, the golf course becomes a truly formidable test. The seaside location also guarantees that some holes will be played into the prevailing wind. The trio of holes from the seventh through the ninth plays along the water and offer scenic views of Lake Michigan. There are 10 holes that border the Paw Paw River, Ox Creek, and their surrounding marshland.

Golfer Reviews
Outstanding!!
If you are ever in the St.joseph area of Michigan put this course on your must do list. Top shelf from the time you arrive till you drive away.Interesting that mid may fairways still had aeration holes that really never caused an issue since they were starting to heal.Greens rolled fast and true.Dont think there is a flat green on this course..so try and note that on the warm up putting green.Beautul course..nice manicured bunkers made for an enjoyable 4 hours for me and my wife.If you can get on for under 80.00 here..do it..you will not regret it.This is a well thought out design that is a pleasure to play.First time playing but hope to make another 3 hour drive sooner than later.This to test my skills now that I have some familiarity with a few holes that sight lines were a little unclear.
Great high end track
Course is still recovering from fall Aerating especially the fairways. The greens were rolling well and tee boxes were in good shape, love the sand at harbor shores. It is very consistent and almost easy to play from.
Staff is super friendly and what one expects at a high end venue.
They used to offer community days to local residents but those days are long gone.
Of you get a chance to play here it’s a great value with a hot deal offer from golf now.
Boomy Friday
The course was great shape and green are fast, a lot twist and turns the greens very adulating. I hope you ready green. A must play again for me.
Favorite
This is one of my favorite course to play. Alway great fast green
Perfect November Golf Day
I signed on to play this course with Hot Deals. Usual rate $80.00. I paid $32. thank you Hot Deals. Perfect sunny November day. Greens were sandy but it was a Perfect November Golf Day
A must play in Michigan
Very beautiful course and well laid out. Challenging and fun to play!
Playing again
It is a tough course and the day we played the pace of play was very slow front nine good back nine was very slow
Pro style layout
Great course and layout. Course and driving range in great shape. Championship style layout greens were in great shape rolling fast and like true Nicklaus style had significant undulations. Everything about this was first class even the rough that trapped several of our balls. Would definitely play it again whenever I make it back to Southwest Michigan
Play at least once
The course is really a good challenge with difficult greens but a lot of fun. Understanding what line to hit your ball on is crucial and for amateur players to score well would require controlling your ball. All in all had a great day with friends on a beautiful course.
